Amazing specimens of amphibious vehicles
A vehicle that can move both on the earth's surface and on the water surface is commonly called an amphibian. It came to us from the animal world and denotes its representatives, who can feel equally comfortable both on land and in water. The same can be said about cars of this type.
For example, in the video on the “Amazing Facts” channel, a selection of the most unusual pieces of equipment in the amphibious vehicle category was made. One of them is an amphibious ATV. It is capable of accelerating up to 72 km / h. Moreover, regardless of the surface on which the movement occurs. For its successful operation on the water, a jet engine and a wheel retraction system were used. The process of transformation itself when switching to another mode of movement of the amphibian takes no more than 5 seconds.
How do you like the new chapter in the history of the automobile industry? Former owner of one of the British sports car companies Peter Wheeler believes that people are tired of their tricked-out cars. It's time to change everything radically. "Scamander" is something unusual and, at the same time, universal in the world of cars. Or - a means of rapid response. Are you interested yet?
